Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vehicle front portion structure.
  • the above-described structure is not a structure in which the sub-frame is made to separate from the front side frame merely due to the stay deforming. Therefore, there is the concern that the sub-frame (the suspension member) will be nipped between the power unit and the front side frame (the front side member). Namely, there is room for improvement in order to efficiently absorb the collision load that is inputted to the sub-frame from the vehicle body front side.
  • an object of the present invention is to obtain a vehicle front portion structure that can efficiently absorb collision impact that is inputted from a vehicle front side to a suspension member.
  • a vehicle front portion structure of a first aspect relating to the present invention comprises: front side members that are disposed along a vehicle body longitudinal direction, and that have inclined portions that cause vehicle body front portion sides to be positioned higher than vehicle body rear portion sides; and a suspension member that is disposed at a vehicle body front side of the inclined portions, and that has inclined walls whose angle of inclination is made to be smaller than an angle of inclination of the inclined portions, the inclined walls being formed at regions that face the inclined portions, in a side view seen from a vehicle transverse direction.
  • the angle of inclination of the inclined walls that are formed at the suspension member is made to be smaller than the angle of inclination of the inclined portions at the front side members. Accordingly, when collision load is inputted from the vehicle body front side and the suspension member moves rearward, it is easy for the inclined walls to move toward the vehicle body rear lower side while being guided by the inclined portions. Namely, the suspension member is moved so as to enter in toward the vehicle body lower sides of the front side members, while interference with the front side members is suppressed. Accordingly, the collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension member is absorbed efficiently.
  • a vehicle front portion structure of a second aspect relating to the present invention is the vehicle front portion structure of the first aspect, wherein concave portions, that have inclined surfaces that are directed toward a vehicle body front upper side, are formed at lower surface sides of the inclined portions, and an angle of inclination of the inclined surfaces is made to be larger than the angle of inclination of the inclined walls, in a side view seen from the vehicle transverse direction.
  • the angle of inclination of the inclined surfaces, that are directed toward the vehicle body front upper side, of the concave portions that are formed at the lower surface sides of the inclined portions is made to be greater than the angle of inclination of the inclined walls, in a side view seen from the vehicle transverse direction. Accordingly, when collision load is inputted from the vehicle body front side and the suspension member moves rearward, the inclined walls are moved toward the vehicle body rear lower side while being guided by the inclined surfaces. Namely, the suspension member is moved so as to enter in toward the vehicle body lower sides of the front side members, while interference with front side members is additionally suppressed. Accordingly, the collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension member is absorbed more efficiently.
  • a vehicle front portion structure of a third aspect relating to the present invention comprises: front side members that are disposed along a vehicle body longitudinal direction, and that have inclined portions that cause vehicle body front portion sides to be positioned higher than vehicle body rear portion sides, concave portions, that have inclined surfaces that are directed toward a vehicle body front upper side, being formed at lower surface sides of the inclined portions; and a suspension member that is disposed at a vehicle body front side of the inclined portions, and that has inclined walls whose angle of inclination is made to be smaller than an angle of inclination of the inclined surfaces at the concave portions, the inclined walls being formed at regions that face the inclined surfaces, in a side view seen from a vehicle transverse direction.
  • the angle of inclination of the inclined walls that are formed at the suspension members is made to be smaller than the angle of inclination of the inclined surfaces of the concave portions that are formed at the front side members. Accordingly, when collision load is inputted from the vehicle body front side and the suspension member moves rearward, it is easy for the inclined walls to move toward the vehicle body rear lower side while being guided by the inclined surfaces. Namely, the suspension member is moved so as to enter in toward the vehicle body lower sides of the front side members, while interference with front side members is suppressed. Accordingly, the collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension member is absorbed efficiently.
  • a vehicle front portion structure of a fourth aspect relating to the present invention is the vehicle front portion structure of any of the first through third aspects, wherein the suspension member has fastening portions that extend integrally from rear end portions of the inclined walls toward a vehicle body rear side, and that are fastened to lower end portions of the inclined portions.
  • the fastening portions that are fastened to the lower end portions of the inclined portions, extend integrally toward the vehicle body rear side from rear end portions of the inclined walls of the suspension members. Accordingly, as compared with a structure in which fastening portions are provided separately from the suspension members, assembling of the suspension members is easy, and a reduction in the manufacturing costs is devised.
  • a vehicle front portion structure of a fifth aspect relating to the present invention is the vehicle front portion structure of the fourth aspect, wherein the fastening portions are formed in flat plate shapes that is configured to bendingly deform toward a vehicle body lower side when collision load is inputted from a vehicle body front side.
  • flat plate shaped in the present invention also includes, for example, substantial flat plate shapes whose peripheral edge portions are molded so as to bend toward the vehicle body lower side.
  • a vehicle front portion structure of a sixth aspect relating to the present invention is the vehicle front portion structure of the fourth or fifth aspect, wherein cap nuts are fixed to the lower end portions of the inclined portions, and the fastening portions are fastened to the lower end portions due to bolts, that are inserted-through through-holes formed at the fastening portions, being screwed-together with the cap nuts.
  • the cap nuts with which bolts that fasten the fastening portions are screwed-together, are fixed to the lower end portions of the inclined portions. Namely, the fastening strength of the fastening portions to the lower end portions of the inclined portions is increased. Accordingly, when collision load is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension members, stress concentrates around the through-holes of the fastening portions, and these peripheries of the through-holes break. Due thereto, the suspension members separate from the lower end portions of the inclined portions, and are moved so as to deeply enter in toward the vehicle body lower sides of the front side members. Therefore, the collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension member is absorbed more efficiently.
  • collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension members can be absorbed efficiently.
  • collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension members can be absorbed more efficiently.
  • collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension members can be absorbed efficiently.
  • the suspension members can be assembled easily and a reduction in the manufacturing costs can be devised, as compared with a structure in which the fastening portions are provided separately from the suspension members.
  • collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension members can be absorbed efficiently.
  • collision load that is inputted from the vehicle body front side to the suspension members can be absorbed more efficiently.

  • a front side fastened-to portion 16 and a rear side fastened-to portion 18 that are for respectively fastening and fixing a front side fastening portion 36 and a rear side fastening portion 38 that are described later of the suspension member 30 , are provided at a vehicle body front portion of the front side member 12 and at a lower end portion of the inclined portion 14 .
  • the suspension member 30 is disposed so as to overlap the inclined portion 14 in a side view (the height direction) seen from the vehicle transverse direction and in a plan view (the vehicle transverse direction) (see FIG. 2 , FIG. 3 ).
  • a lower reinforcement 26 that extends in the vehicle body longitudinal direction and that is disposed at a lower side position due to the peripheral edge portion being fixed by welding to a side wall 12 S of the front side member 12

Further, the height of the cap portion 22 is made to be higher than the interval in the vertical direction from the lower wall 12 D to the upper reinforcement 28 .
  • the cap nut 20 is placed due to the cap portion 22 , that is further toward the bolt insertion direction upstream side than the flange portion 24 , being inserted-through the through-hole 12 A of the lower wall 12 D before the lower reinforcement 26 and the upper reinforcement 28 are provided. Further, at the time of inserting the cap portion 22 through the interior of the through-hole 26 A and providing the lower reinforcement 26 , the outer peripheral portion of the flange portion 24 is fixed to the lower reinforcement 26 by arc welding.

  • the angle of inclination of the inclined surface 15 A (the inclined portion 14 ) is made to be larger than the angle of inclination of an inclined wall 40 , that is described later, of the suspension member 30 .
  • the angle of inclination of the inclined wall 40 of the suspension member 30 is made to be smaller than the angle of inclination of the inclined surface 15 A (the inclined portion 14 ) of the concave portion 15 .

  • lower arms 42 that structure an unillustrated suspension are mounted to the suspension member main body 32 , further toward the vehicle transverse direction outer sides than the corner portions 34 .
  • an unillustrated power unit that includes an engine and a transmission, is disposed at the vehicle body front side of the suspension member 30 .

  • the power unit moves toward the vehicle body rear side (moves rearward), and some of this collision load is inputted to the suspension member main body 32 of the suspension member 30 . Thereupon, the suspension member main body 32 moves toward the vehicle body rear side (moves rearward).
  • the angle of inclination of the inclined wall 40 is made to be smaller than the angle of inclination of the inclined portion 14 (the inclined surface 15 A of the concave portion 15 ).
  • the suspension member main body 32 moves rearward, the inclined wall 40 contacts the inclined portion 14 (the inclined surface 15 A), and moves toward the vehicle body rear lower side while being guided by this inclined portion 14 (inclined surface 15 A) (shown by arrow F in FIG. 5 ). Namely, the suspension member main body 32 is displaced toward the intersection point P.
  • the rear side fastening portion 38 is formed substantially in the shape of a plate. Accordingly, the rear side fastening portion 38 bendingly deforms toward the vehicle body lower side with the intersection point P being the starting point. Note that, at this time, because the suspension member main body 32 is displaced rectilinearly toward the intersection point P, there is no loss of the input of load toward the intersection point P, and bending deformation can be brought about at the rear side fastening portion 38 at an early stage by input of a low load.
  • the suspension member main body 32 (the suspension member 30 ) is moved so as to deeply enter in toward the vehicle body lower side of the front side member 12 , while interference with the inclined portion 14 is suppressed (mitigated).

  • the rear side fastening portion 38 extends integrally toward the vehicle body rear side from the rear end portion of the inclined wall 40 of the suspension member 30 . Accordingly, as compared with a structure in which the rear side fastening portion 38 is provided separately from the suspension member 30 , assembling of the suspension member 30 is easy, and a reduction in manufacturing costs can be devised. Namely, an increase in the number of parts and an increase in the manufacturing costs at the time of manufacturing the suspension member 30 can be suppressed or prevented.

Then, as shown in FIG. 9 , when the bending deformation of the rear side fastening portion 38 progresses, the movement of the suspension member main body 32 toward the vehicle body rear lower side progresses (shown by arrow F in FIG. 9 ), and the rear side fastening portion 38 separates from the rear side fastened-to portion 18 .
  • the suspension member main body 32 (the suspension member 30 ) is moved so as to deeply enter in toward the vehicle body lower side of the front side member 12 , while interference with the inclined portion 14 is suppressed (mitigated).
